Bright and early on Jan. 23, 2025, 50 new movies were given the prestigious title "Oscar Nominee."

With the nominees announced and the Oscars ceremony not until March 2, 2025, that gives you time to watch as many of the nominated movies as possible. The only tricky part is tracking them down. What's in theaters? What's on Netflix? Which shorts are only available on The New York Times website, and which movies aren't available at all? Plus, over the coming weeks, many of the nominees are likely to switch things up as they aim to be seen by as many people as possible in this lucrative window of opportunity.

To help you out with your Oscar movie viewings, we've put together a list of exactly where you can watch every single nominee, and we'll be updating it regularly until the Academy Awards, so that you can check back and see if something new has arrived to a streaming service near you.

Hyperobject Industries

Nominations Received: One — Best Live Action Short FilmWhat It's About: A young couple sort through a dangerous immigration process. Oscar Chances: Since the shorts races have gained relatively little attention up until now, we won't be assessing their chances at winning an Oscar.How to Watch: Vimeo

Alien: Romulus

Nominations Received: One — Best Visual EffectsWhat It's About: A standalone film in the Alien universe about a group of youngsters looking to escape a mining planet who end up on a ship infested with aliens. Oscar Chances: Unlikely to beat Dune: Part TwoHow to Watch: Hulu

TIFF

Its other best shot is in the Original Screenplay category. How to Watch: Video on demand

Netflix

Anuja

Nominations Received: One — Best Live Action Short FilmWhat It's About: A young girl in India is given the opportunity to leave work at a clothing factory and attend school. How to Watch: Netflix

Nominations Received: Two — Best Actor (Sebastian Stan), Best Supporting Actor (Jeremy Strong) What It's About: The early life of Donald Trump and his relationship with Roy Cohn. Oscar Chances: Neither are frontrunners, but given the current developments with the Trump presidency, we could see a surge since the film is critical of the president.How to Watch: Video on demand

MTV Documentary Films

Black Box Diaries

Nominations Received: One — Best Documentary Feature FilmWhat It's About: An investigative journalist in Japan accuses a powerful man of rape in a society built not to believe women. Oscar Chances: While No Other Land seems like the most likely winner, if enough voters decide not to reward the pro-Palestine doc, Black Box Diaries could swoop in. How to Watch: Paramount+ with Showtime

NYFF

The Brutalist

Nominations Received: Ten — Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor (Adrien Brody), Best Supporting Actor (Guy Pearce), Best Supporting Actress (Felicity Jones), Best Original Screenplay, Best Original Score, Best Production Design, Best Cinematography, Best Film EditingWhat It's About: A Hungarian Jewish Holocaust survivor moves to Philadelphia and is hired by a wealthy family as an architect. Oscar Chances: The Brutalist really could walk away with a number of trophies. Best Original Score and Best Actor for Brody seem highly likely. Best Picture, Director and Cinematography are also on the table. If the Academy goes all in, then it could also snatch Original Screenplay and Film Editing. Supporting Actor, Supporting Actress and Production Design seem like longshots. How to Watch: Currently in theaters

Searchlight Pictures

A Complete Unknown

Nominations Received: Eight — Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor (Timothée Chalamet), Best Supporting Actor (Edward Norton), Best Supporting Actress (Monica Barbaro), Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Sound, Best Costume DesignWhat It's About: The early career of Bob Dylan and his relationships with two early loves. Oscar Chances: Best Actor for Chalamet seems the best bet if he can overtake Adrien Brody.

Otherwise Adapted Screenplay and Original Score seem like the best bets. Production Design and Costume Design are up against Wicked, but if the Academy decides that movie is too frivolous, then Conclave could nab those. How to Watch: Peacock
